This Little Book

One Woman Farm is a small book. It's small in every way. It doesn't take up much space, take much time to read, nor did it shock the world in sales records - but I love this little book so much. It's got images of my home, animals, life and love drawn throughout. It combines stories, music, art and agriculture to showcase a weird little world. It's all these things but it is also fall captured. It starts in October and ends in October - the holy month on this Homestead. Pick it up if you haven't, or if you order from my local bookstore, Connie will call me and I'll literally drive down there with Gibson and we can both sign it for you and send it to your front door.

I'm so glad you posted this, because it reminded me that I haven't read this book or your Cold Antler Farm book. I read Made From Scratch years ago, and your bread recipe was my first loaf of homemade bread and your jam recipe inspired me to buy a canning set. After growing up reading Little House on the Prairie, I was so happy to learn that I wasn't alone in wanting to live like Laura Ingalls! I hope you will keep writing books, I have really enjoyed reading your stories.
